Sorting Problem with the Web 2.0 Directory Plugin

We use the Web 2.0 Directory Plugin in our wordpress site to display a business directory. The plugin has it’s own sorting options whitch are somehow overwritten when the Post Types Order Plugin is active.

I manualy solved it by modifying the posts_orderby function inside the \include\class.cpto.php file, adding the lines:
```
 //ignore the w2dc
 if (isset($query->query_vars['post_type']) == "w2dc_listing")
       return $orderBy;
```
As this fix will require me to re-add the above lines every time the Post Types Order Plugin is updated, can you suggest a more elegant solution?

Hi,
Actually there’s no need to hack the code, you can rely on the filter pto/posts_orderby/ignore

e.g.

add_filter( 'pto/posts_orderby/ignore', pto_posts_orderby_ignore, 10, 3);
    function pto_posts_orderby_ignore($ignore,  $orderBy, $query)
        {
            if (isset($query->query_vars['post_type']) == "w2dc_listing")
                $ignore =   TRUE;
                
            return $ignore;  
            
        }

Thanks

An update for above code:

add_filter( 'pto/posts_orderby/ignore', pto_posts_orderby_ignore, 10, 3);
    function pto_posts_orderby_ignore($ignore,  $orderBy, $query)
        {
            if (isset($query->query_vars['post_type']) &&  $query->query_vars['post_type'] == "w2dc_listing")
                $ignore =   TRUE;
                
            return $ignore;  
            
        }
